It is generally accepted that it is important for veterinary professionals to keep up to date with the current medical literature; however, when working in a busy practice, this can often be a challenging task to keep up with. Regularly scheduled journal clubs are a great way to bridge this gap. Since these journal clubs are done as a group, it helps to distribute the work of reviewing the articles amongst multiple people. It also allows for more valuable discussions around the highlights of the article with your coworkers. With the journal club occurring on a regular basis, it assures that everyone is able to keep up with the most current literature that is coming out.

These should be recently published articles, however, articles that are deemed seminal (i.e. by ACVECC/ECVECC) can also be included.

Articles should be emailed out to everyone one week ahead of the journal club date for everyone to review.
